It must be something wrong that I am doing, but once in a while the
following sock_recvmsg hangs for 10 seconds even though the client the
socket is connected to has returned all data...
...
How do I fix this?
Make the server close the socket when it's sent all the data.
The kernel has no idea if "all the data" has been sent until it sees
the close from the sender, but the kernel does use a timeout so that
you do not block forever in MSG_WAITALL if the server does not close
the connection.
Later,
